How to use this worksheet
Cut out the traffic sign pictures at the bottom of the page. Read each label next to the empty boxes aloud together, such as 'stop' or 'yield.' Glue the matching traffic sign into the box beside its correct label, continuing through the remaining signs while discussing what each one means for drivers and pedestrians.

- •Play a 'sign detective' game, spotting traffic signs from the car window and naming them.
Tips for parents and teachers
Review the traffic signs with your child before they start the activity, since some shapes, like the octagon for stop, are easier to remember than reading the actual text. Discuss the importance of following traffic rules to stay safe, connecting the worksheet content to real walks or car rides.
